164 @ The_Young_Turk:Agree. To play a young man, when clearly under an injury cloud was a massive faux pas by the selectors. It could ruin the lad.
180 @ Puma:
Hind sight is perfect sight….
Oh Heynecke, you really make it difficult to support you! Why can’t you do the farking obvious sooner. If Goose wasn’t 100%, don’t play him! If he so obviously is struggling on the field, SUBSTITUTE him and trust your back-up!

176 @ grootblousmile:
Elton in only a few minutes is playing better than Goosen. If Elton takes his chances here, Meyer MUST start him on the eoyt.
Boys, Goosen passed all te fitness tests, the kicking tests…. hell, sometimes I don’t understand you okes!
The only answer I have is that you are really bidding for Heyneke and some players to fail….
Really, I don’t understand!
@ Just For Kicks:
181
i agree with you , HM was warned by Naka, dont play him but Ostrich tried to go the populist way, fool.
182 @ grootblousmile:
Elton should have started. Goosen I am not sure if he is ready yet for this level, or is it his injury that is keeping him back? Elton was straight in and playing excellent.
185 @ Puma:
Yeah… wonderful to say so now… but before the game everybody welcomed Goosen with open arms.
@ grootblousmile:
Please Smiles. Sometimes I despair with you. The whole farking world has been wondering if the youngster was fit. He wasn’t fit for the Oz game and HM kept him on the field too long. He’s done the same this time. This is his pattern. HE DOESN’T CHANGE!
189 @ grootblousmile:
Goosen looked nervous from the start. Elton came on and showed no nerves, seems to have more bmt than Goosen right now. Goosen too I think came in with a injury. Now we have wasted a place on the bench for another player. If Goosen was injured and allowed to play that was daft. He started last week with a foot injury too.
189@ @ grootblousmile:
A FIT Goose!
190 @ The_Young_Turk:
Straight up question… did you say anything before the game started that Goosen should not be in the team?
I see a bad thing in HM , he backs off too easily, he was so pissed of when he lost the job to PdeV he completely quited Rugby, so called nothing more to fight for. Sorry guys i still wait for him to show me real coaching ability. It is easy to have all this SA players available . All the money to buy whoever you want but making a good player better , thats the trick. Refer to AB coaching….
As a coach, Van Graan should be a bit better dressed than that!
2 Nd Half ON!
Nonu scores… eish
Hell, where were the All Blacks in the first half? Thats more like it. Good try
Bliksem, just too easy.
Geez these All Blacks are farking good!
We can not play the ball like the ABs, we play conservative , hope Jantjes do his own thing
All Blacks 19 / 16 Springboks
… en die AB het deurgedraf vir daardie drie, nie eers voluit gehardloop nie. Dit kan lelik raak ….
193@ @ grootblousmile:
You’re evading the issue. His fitness was the issue.
3 Tries by the All Blacks…. 38 Minutes to play
